The SCF is a charitable company and the only non-government organisation representing crofting. We:

  • work to develop, promote and encourage crofting.
  • represent and safeguard the interests of crofters, their families and communities, their cultural heritage and their legislative rights.
  • promote the environmental, social and cultural benefits of crofting activity and land use as intrinsic aspects of rural development.
  • raise awareness of crofting through information and education.
  • promote diversity of people, enterprise, skills and expertise.

Established and run by crofters themselves, the SCF actively engages with agencies and government officials at local, national and international levels to influence policy on rural, agricultural, social, environmental and other issues.

As the sole membership organisation devoted to the promotion of crofting and crofting issues, the SCF has developed a reputation for its forward-looking and innovative approach. Its respect for the past influences the present and looks ahead to a secure and prosperous crofting future.
